Wait, is mobile data access a basic right now?

I am living very comfortably but never got a mobile data plan. I find them too expensive for what they are. YMMV.
Geekbench lasts much, much more than 6 seconds.

AMD TDPs aren't like Intel. The chip will average out 15W if in a 15W TDP setting.
maybe instead of the fed juicing the markets and the congress giving everyone checks, we should have targeted aid to the needy. but that’s unpopular because people are greedy and want free money even if they don’t need it
I'm not talking about the intentions of Morris Chang, and I agree that it wasn't intentional.

What I'm referring to as "that approach" is the below suggestion from MangoCoffee, to whom I replied.

I agree it isn't inflation in the classic sense, I'm not sure of a great term for this effect.

A thought experiment, if I printed up a dollar for each one in circulation then put them in a vault that shouldn't cause inflation even though the money supply has doubled, similarly if in a thousand years someone opens the vault and puts those dollars into circulation inflation happens even though the money supply has unchanged.

My thesis is dollars that go between hedge fund to hedge fund are "in a vault" compared to dollars that are buying food at the local Walmart. If some of those hedge fund dollars ends up in the hands of a individual (say a minimum wage increase causes firms to halt buybacks and direct that money toward payroll) that would cause inflation of consumer goods as now we have more dollars chasing the same output.
I would imagine it's the result of inventing some busywork the keep the frontend team occupied after the product is "done" and the only thing it really requires is low amounts of maintenance.

That, and pushing more useds to the mobile application.
Great questions! Thank you!

Doppler does not do End-to-End encryption, so their service has plain text access to your secrets.

What's crazy about a desktop GUI to manage secrets to me is that it's overkill when doing vim with the equivalent of a .env file is perfectly adequate for many use cases.

Envwarden is great, but with CloudEnv you can do access control via IP addresses, you can grant new IP address access via email approval, you can grant read-only access to some IP addresses... so you get a lot of flexibility over who and when the access to your secrets is given. In addition, there is an auditable access log that keeps track of when and where every access attempt was made.
The crony belief that people aught to be more well off and happier should be addressed separately. Claiming it as a true statement is of course problematic (especially "aught to"), but I have discovered a truly remarkable proof of this statement which an HN comment is too small to contain ;)

Kidding aside, as I mentioned earlier I suggest the antidote to crony or any other false beliefs is an uncompromising and unrelenting skepticism in every belief. This neti-neti approach can continue until what remains is not a belief anymore, but a recognition of something that is prior to any belief.
Apparently the standard poverty threshold does not vary by region. There is a measure called the "Supplemental Poverty Measure" which does take into account certain cost-of-living adjustments, amongst other things. More info here: https://www.census.gov/content/dam/Census/library/publicatio...

It does not look like this research used that measure. Given the income disparity between urban and rural areas, I'm worried that this could paint a misleading picture about who exactly is suffering here.

(I'm definitely no expert here, just a lay person trying to interpret this.)
The worst web browser I have access to is the "experimental" one on a Kindle 4. Most web pages that one might want to visit will not load in this web browser—because it does not support modern versions of TLS.

For the reasons mentioned in this article—it's probably a good idea to keep plain HTTP access available on your websites.
EVGA has a sign up sheet. They'll email you when it's your turn and you have some number of hours to complete the order (don't remember the exact amount of time you get). Note that at this point it'll likely be months before you make it to the head of the line.
When I graduated from a coding boot camp, I struggled for ~3 years trying to get my first real SWE role. At a few points, I was literally begging startups to let me work for them practically for free, and they were still saying no. A lot of companies have a genuine fear that just having inexperienced people around is more of a liability than an asset.

I doubt I would’ve ever taken a deal like this, but I don’t think it’s that unreasonable to have to eat some shit for a year or two in order to break into what you want to do. If your choice is between earning $8/hr working retail, and earning $8/hr as an engineer, the latter is the way to go. Maybe also judge it against going to grad school where you’re not just not making money, but you’re actually going into tens of thousands of dollars of debt.
Everyone knows these are 90% for credential building vs skills, why are they desirable for hirers? I feel like it creates some self fulfilling prophecy of “these credentials are useful because other people have them”.

Based on my experience, a constrained laptop helps your productivity shine: fewer temptation, more concentration, you create an overall better quality output in less time.

I don't know why and TBH I don't care. My next laptop has 4GB (downsizing from 8Gb) for this reason: to help me focus.

I wrote a novel that takes place in the near future (2035) and the main character is a 18 year old. I predict that using phones will be banned until you come off age and their technology interaction is restricted to smart watches.

I think you're arguing for a market with only direct investments and no secondary derivatives. If that was all the equity market was, we could be in the same zip code.

However, we live in this hyper-securitized world, where every part of the economic fabric has bets for and against, with insurance, leverage and information asymmetry baked in.

The only way to "discover" price is to provide instruments that provide "gravity" for both upward and downward price movements. The lack of supply on it's own is not enough, especially when malicious actors are pushing on the supply and demand levers.
It's incredibly good for GameStop. This gives them an excellent opportunity to issue new stock and raise a huge war-chest to pivot and become a 21st century business.

It is pretty funny that their definition of commerce includes commerce, but seems like communication is on the list as well.
“ That said, with the exception of very rural areas the wage floor for most moderately skilled or unpleasant work is above $15 an hour already”

In other words, the whole point of minimum wage laws is really just grandstanding by politicians?
Moderation has already been occuring for a while now

This includes moderation of left wing users and things that probably should not be banned(especially minority voices). It's just the the current crop of far right and conspiracy folks complain a lot more/louder.

That said I do worry that it will be an extra excuse for authoritarian countries but it probably won't change their behavior
I want to start and stop a couple of systemd services remotely. Currently I expose the command with sudo and run it under a remotely connected user. What are other options?
Nothing. It was a not-for-profit but it converted itself to a for-profit entity and made an exclusive deal with Microsoft for GPT-3 (not sure how it's exclusive given all the beta API users).

Granted training your own copy of GPT-3 would be beyond most peoples means anyway (I think I read an estimate that it was a multi-million dollar effort to train a model that big).

I do think it's a bit dodgy to not change the name though when you change the core premise.
I believe the problem with the WPS button is that it comes with a WPS PIN (might be optional, but enabled by default in most cases) which means brute-force attacks are possible even without having to press the button, where as the solution described in the repo would at least require you to eavesdrop on an active key exchange between 2 users.
Yeah, that seems to be the case.

I'm not sure they realize, that they are throwing money away - I'm pretty sure they do not. But it may well kill some hedge funds and even cause some market ripples.

But in the end, it will be it - throwing money away. And once the dust settle, and they find themselves with big losses, I bet they will blame ... Wall Street.

Just to be clear - there is already plenty to blame on Wall Street, no need blame them for something they didn't do.

My understanding when it comes to market manipulation based on speech is there must be some element of deceit. I.e. saying "We should all buy GameStop because they'll have better technology than Netflix" is a lie, and if people believed it would be classic pump-and-dump market manipulation. Saying "We should all buy GameStop to engineer the short squeeze of the century and fuck over greedy hedge funds" is completely transparent, truthful, and legal.
how much is a $20 USD bill worth to you? Its a penny or less of cotton.

obviously its not sustainable, we are entering a short squeeze. But capping at $4 a share shouldn't have been either, I think $60-$80 is a really reasonable assessment, it will spike, and rightly so, as the too greedy naked short sellers get screwed over and forced to cover their positions

No, they are not. Not at all and that you think that is exactly my point. One is the voice of a group that has been in power throughout the history of this country and the other is a group that has been oppressed by the former group.

One group is using violence to maintain their power, while the other is using anything they can to make their lives better.
That wasn't implied to me. When people go out of their way to point out how what you said isn't what you meant to say, and you brush it off as "no no, it's you who don't understand my eloquent prose," you might want to consider taking the feedback as constructive.

I wouldn't say that anywhere near nasa. Lots of people worked in these structures doing amazing things. They probably have very fond memories of their time with them.
Yes, I'm the one pushing for a very annoying linter. Some coworkers don't like it but I think the majority likes it.

We use eslint with a set of airbnb and unicorn rules. We went from the recommended rules and changed a few settings. Most of the rules will reformat or fix the code automatically so it's not a huge problem during development. If it's not automatically fixed, you will still have a link to the documentation explaining why the rule exists. You also cannot merge to the main branch if the linter is not happy.

And I recently started to write custom eslint rules too, it's not very difficult and it's fun.

And by smear do you mean accurately describing far right conspiracy junk or something else?
You seem to be making the argument that if it’s legal, it’s not immoral. I reject this argument completely. By necessity the law does not (and cannot) cover every single aspect of human behavior. Just because what IKEA is doing is legal does not make it right. Nor is it inappropriate for a private citizen to condemn behavior they disapprove of, whether or not it’s legal.

As far as where the ethical line is, that is a very complicated subject not conducive to generic discussion. But I am extremely certain that “we configured our multi-billion dollar international furniture business as a non-profit” is certainly well on the wrong side of the line. We can discuss other scenarios in their appropriate context, but the existence of other grey areas does not excuse the unethical behavior of IKEA here.

I do wish legislators would get their <explicative deleted> together and fix the tax code so that IKEA will pay their fair share, but condemning them for their behavior is a necessary prerequisite to that change actually happening. One can’t chastise other citizens for complaining about unethical behavior and suggest that instead someone else should change the law, that makes literally no sense. I have no direct capability to change the law, and it’s incoherent of you to tell me to stop complaining about it until the law is changed.

Taking a quick look at the site, Beyoncé has a store page on it, which would be sufficient to classify it.
That reads as an argument but my lack of English skills makes it hard to understand what exactly are you saying.

However, it does seem to me that that you still haven't addressed one of the main points you're responding to, that we can have perfect equality where everyone lives as the average person below poverty line today. Would that be a better society considering your arguments?
It wasn't quite clear in the article, but the government isn't paying to remove the platforms, rather the cost of removing the platforms can be written off on taxes, so they (all the oil companies combined) would be paying 24bn less in taxes than they otherwise would have.
> Considerable? I don’t know, every few days I would need to restart Xcode. No big deal, really. It’s two clicks to close the app, one to launch it again but it’s annoying nevertheless.

You literally considered it while writing your list. Therefore literally considerable.
As someone involved in hiring, this is what Bootcamps and Universities are teaching, and what companies are looking for: backend spits JSON, frontend consumes it using React.

Rendering HTML on the server is not really "the default" anymore as it was 10 year ago: it's more of an optimization for when your React site is slow, and it's a black box to most people. Even static websites are "strange tech" to new graduates outside the HN bubble.

Also, developers hate mixing tech. You mentioned an "interactive map" in your example. This can be made with React or something like that, right? The issue is that a lot of developers will want to use React for everything else on the page, because they think it's "icky" to use other kinds of tech in other parts of the website. They sorta have a point (the "microfrontends" discussion was a thing a couple years ago), but on the other hand they're not considering the tradeoffs.

Also, the frontend is officially the centre of the application on medium sized companies (50+ devs). It's way easier to add new code to the frontend and spin another microservice than to coordinate between multiple teams of backend engineers.

I'm not saying this is good or bad, btw. It's just how it is.

EDIT: One thing that really bothers me that people fresh in the industry don't really believe that websites were faster 10 or 20 years ago, so I don't really see any light at the end of the tunnel. Sure we can do new things on the web, but what was already possible before has been made slower by our collective refusal to "use the right tool for the job". Even the frontend tooling today is very heavy and slow, and I'm in a 2020 MBP. I don't think we progressed much. React is an amazing idea (and the implementation is great), but the community has become too dogmatic.
Good devs care about code
Agreed. The difference this time is that the gains are socialized this time, not retained in the fraternity of HF, PE, and IB.

Which is exactly why Wall Street and financial media is denigrating it. They hate that they don't have the edge, or a monopoly on profits in this case.
Well that was a little unexpected! I happened to write a long response to a similar comment yesterday: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25922311. I don't suppose it will convince you but a guy can dream.

The short version is that what you've posted here is actually the same, even though it seems opposite on the surface, as how people with one ideological bit flipped call HN a "leftist SJW and socialist haven", "always politically left", "they don't like conservative opinions here", "a liberal echo chamber", "the HN crowd is mostly woke", "heavily leaning to the left", "HN has a very anti-libertarian echo chamber", "HN has a heavy socialist lean, you are not allowed to have a differing perspective", "dang is an SJW cunt", and "any thought that differs from SV, left-leaning orthodoxy, is instantly flagged, downvoted, or deleted".

How could there be? Do you expect the photographer to outright admit that intent? Short of such an admission, what would proof of the photographers' intent look like?
LOL, now take your analogy all the way.

The redesign has absolutely no resource management. They don't load and unload media when its no longer in the viewport either from scrolling or opening a thread, and the redesign infinitely scrolls.

Plus thread view is a modal over the feed unless you navigate directly to its URL, so often times you'll have media loading and running in the thread view while other media may still be playing back in the feed.

I don't think that's the only source of the insane memory leak in Safari in particular (you will get into the GBs if you leave a media-heavy feed open past 10 minutes or so), but its gotta be a big contributor.
I second this. I've been driving various non-Tesla EVs over the past 7+ years and during that time, Chargepoint has become quite good and widely available. Phone RFID integration and their "waiting queue" feature have been very useful additions.
> you'd rather run Microsoft's proprietary browser

No, I'd rather use higher quality free software: as it's chromium based it's open source.

Nothing prevents debian from compiling a de-microsofted edgium, like they do with a de-googled chromium.

As for sideloading darkreader, that's a decent idea!

But I'm not sure I want a worse user experience (firefox firing its devs may not have been the brightest idea!) and be forced to sideload extensions for things that are already included in another free software browser.

To be fair, this is kind of neat-- it means the Tesla system fails "open" and, as long as there's power at the supercharger station (and all the electronics work, of course), the car will charge. I had some anxiety the first time or two I used a supercharger-- "what if it doesn't work?" -- but so far, that's been completely unfounded. When it 'fails', you get a free charge! I once found a supercharger that said "limited service" which concerned me. All it actually meant was, it charged at 75kW instead of 150. And my charge was free.
Off topic, but I find it very off-putting when people write blog posts using "we". Like speak for yourself, I have my own reasons for doing things. It's to the point where I don't even pay attention to what the person is saying because they're being so presumptive in telling me what I think.

Which is weird, because I really enjoy the convention of using we in math.
CircuitPython and MicroPython are great for hobbyists or if you need to prototype something quickly.

It becomes very limiting for bigger embedded applications. Is the chip and are all peripherals supported? Probably not.
I,ve been working on a hyper-compatible web forum system. With some tweaking, I,ve been able to achieve compatibility with Netscape 2.x, IE 3.x, Mosaic 1.x, Opera 3.x, and everything since then, not to mention Lynx, Links, w3m, etc. I still have some advanced JS stuff, but it,s behind feature checks. 25+ years of various client compatibility, for people with older devices and retro fans. Amazing tech we should not throw away.

Yes the ads/trackers/etc is most likely a reason that a webpage cannot be completely without javascript.

Two other possible reasons from the top of my head:

If a web developer is hired to make a site they can probably charge more if it is a fancy javascript site. In some cases it might be in their self interest to up-sell this to a client that does not know better.

If a web developer makes a site for themselves I am sure many want to take the opportunity to get some experience in the latest web-tech while they are at it. Just as I will use an obscure programming language for my next side project..
I think part of the idea is that systemic racism lead to class difference, shift of industry trend, impact of policies. If you set people up for failure for one generation to trap them into poverty, it's enough work done to keep further generations trapped too. Just look at how segregated neighborhoods/cities still are. It's mostly because of policy from a long time ago that still has an effect to this day.
